After Appalachian State pulled off its second-biggest upset in school history on Saturday, capturing a 17–14 victory on the road in College Station against No. 6 Texas A&M, the outcome of the game reverberated throughout college football.
App State’s defense held Texas A&M to just 186 yards of total offense, while the Mountaineers’ offense held the ball for 41:30 en route to the improbable road victory.
The Mountaineers were due after a wild 63–61 loss at home against North Carolina last Saturday. The way the App State defense responded against A&M’s offense is night and day from the effort a week ago.
